A source of shame?

The New York Times reports that the BlacBerry is so passé that it has become a source of shame and derision.  This may be evidence that people have a misplaced sense of shame nowadays. The article also points out that complaints from associates about being given BlackBerrys at Covington & Burling led to the firm agreeing to offer its lawyers an iPhone option.  I guess because it is totally rational to pick a lawyer based on what kind of mobile handheld device they use.

  1. Mr.. Gillette, reading between the lines here, but you need not be ashamed that you are the last lawyer on earth who knows how to turn on a computer yet does not own a smartphone.
